Pakistan's army says to have killed 26 militants in an attack near the Afghan border. Pakistan's army says troops backed by artillery and helicopter gunships have killed 26 militants in an attack near the Afghan border.
The military said troops were backed by artillery and helicopter gunships during the operation in Mohmand, in North-West Frontier Province. The army said the battle took place in Mohmand, North-West Frontier Province, said to be a hub for Taleban militants.
A military statement said the offensive in the Sapri area had been successful but did not mention any casualties among the troops. Earlier, Pakistan's president said his country would not allow use of its soil for terrorist activity.
Security forces have been battling the Taleban for months in the Mohmand area. It came after the US said elements in Pakistan's ISI military intelligence were still supporting the Taleban.
Adm Mike Mullen, the chairman of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff, said in a CNN interview on Friday night the ISI had links with militants on both Pakistan's borders with Afghanistan and India.
Earlier on Saturday, the Taleban destroyed 12 parked trucks - laden with supplies for Nato personnel in Afghanistan - near the city of Peshawar, capital of North-West Frontier Province.Earlier on Saturday, the Taleban destroyed 12 parked trucks - laden with supplies for Nato personnel in Afghanistan - near the city of Peshawar, capital of North-West Frontier Province.
